All Abilities are welcome!!! Meet in the big parking lot behind WSRE on College Blvd. just 200 yds. from the light on 12th Ave. A and B Groups available. A group is fast (20mph+), B not as fast (17-19) and is a 'no drop' ride. Usually there is also a C group which is shorter, slower and stays off of Scenic Hwy. The A/B route will continue on Scenic to Summit till the 'Langley Hill' construction is done.

The 'Wheelmen in the Country' meet at the Blackwater Heritage Trail head next to Truly Spokin' in Milton each Saturday morning.

The ride has been a staple of the area for 18+ years and counting with anywhere from 20 to 50 riders on any given Saturday. There are 7 convenience stores located 15 to 28 miles from the Trail head start/finish. One of these stores is the usual Saturday destination. The distance of the ride will vary from 42 to 55+ miles and is typically posted by Thursday afternoon on the Blackwater Cycling Facebook page. The pace varies as well. You can typically expect 2 to 3 groups of riders with a Blackwater pace scale as follows:A group - riding speeds of 22 to 30 mph with a finishing moving average of 22+B group - They're getting frisky. Typical riding speeds are 18 to 24 mph with a finished moving average of 18.5 to 20.5 mphC group and lower - riding speeds depends the company, anticipate riding speeds of 15 to 20 mph depending upon the wind and ongoing conversations. Finished moving average 16-17 mph.

THE DESTINATION MAY CHANGE WITH THE 'C' GROUP!! The core group of riders has been in Blackwater for years and will sometimes opt for a different route than the faster groups.

The 'Monday Meander' is the Wheelmen version of the "Slow Ride"! The pace is 14-16 mph (16 MAX!). The route is a 7 mile lap around the Pensacola Airport. Helmets are required but not spandex. Come on out for a casual nearly flat ride! Beginners welcome! For more info, contact David Murphy (murf524@gmail.com).
